This is a worked example taken from Seefeld and Kim's monograph:
<http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Seefeld_StatsRBio.pdf>
plot(x,dgamma(x,shape=2,scale=1), type='l',xlab="x", ylab="f(x)", main="Gamma pdf's")
lines(x,dgamma(x,shape=2,scale=2),lty=2)
lines(x,dgamma(x,shape=2,scale=4),lty=3)
lines(x,dgamma(x,shape=2,scale=8),lty=4)
legend(x=10,y=.3,paste("Scale=",c(1,2,4,8)),lty=1:4)
